[4.00/10] The House (2017)

Quick Review: It may sound both funny and clever on paper, but the ugly truth is "The House" is actually neither. Though good-intentioned at first, this poorly-written attempt at a comedy promises some crazy home- turned-secret-casino romp but ends up being very nasty and degrading instead, caring less about the good cause it revolves around, and more about the wealth obsession. Poehler and Ferrell are trying hard to spice up the flat jokes with some slapstick humor, but fail to deliver.
